H2 Source Newbie here, was wondering if any of you experts knew what was the "ugliest" off road tires that would fit on factory rims?

I picked up a set of factory rims off ebay ($150.00 for the set) and want to mount some strictly off road "fun" tires on them.

Any help would be greatly apreciated!
Thanks!

I wouldn't call then ugly, But I have a set of Super SWamper SSR's that I am Really enjoying the capability of.
You could go with a set of Boggers or the Irok's are pretty aggressive.
As long as you stay with a 37X12.5 you should be OK to go with pretty much anything.

Good luck, and let us know what you decided on.
You can usually get a pretty quick response if you have any other questions.

Thanks Seth!
I took them (SSR's) out to Big Shell this weekend for some pretty Mild Playing in the Sand, and they ran just fine.
The tires themselves are kina noisy, But I personally like my Hummer to Hummm down the road.
I would reccomend them to pretty much anyone that is looking for a good aggressive tire capable of climbing rocks, and playing in the mud too!
Just be warned rocks are sharp, and they will take some pretty good chunks out of the lugs.

Thanks Guys!!!!

I've been looking at the Super Swampers pretty hard.

I don't care about any noise, or how well they ware for that matter, these are going to be for FUN only!

Has anyone heard anything about the new BFG Krawler's?

Is there any other manufactures out there that make a 17" X 8" tire in the 35" to 37" range?

Thanks!

Check out the PRO-COMP XTerrain, Ive had mine since January and no regrets. This tires come in 35's or 37's and work great in sand mud or snow. Yes they are noisy. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

If you can pull up fourwheel and Offroad past articles, they did and article on the BFG Krawlers. I think it was about 3 months ago. They mentioned that the were awesome rock crawlers, but not good for on the road. Which should work well for your needs.

Let me know if you can't find it, and I can scan the article to you.

I got home and found that it was actually in a Fourwheeler magazine.
To be exact it was in the August 2003 issue.
It also happened to be the issue where they did a really nice review on the H2.
The site is WWW.FOURWHEELER.COM (http://WWW.FOURWHEELER.COM) GOOD LUCK on your search for offroad tires.

Jigga - you are so right about trying to find the MT/R's! Have tried to score a set either online or locally to no avail - till yesterday. Found a set with a decent set of custom wheels on eBay for $1K. Will have them on the H2 within a week!

If my set of MT/R's doesn't ship by Friday, I'm going to cancel my order and say to hell with them. I'll just keep my BFG AT's and buy something else cool.
